Anyhow, check them out and decide which one is for you.

2. Your Website Hosting

Web hosting is necessary if you want to create a website. Web hosting is where you put your website files and information. Web hosting is very inexpensive these days. All you need to do is choose one from the following three web hosting sites.

Bluehost - unlimited domains on one account for $6.95 per month is great value.

HostMonster - unlimited domains on one account for $6.95 per month is again great value.

Web Hosting Pad - unlimited domains on one account for $3.95 per month is the cheapest of the three.

In summary, every web hosting site has its good and bad points. However, at the end of the day you simply need to choose the one that suits you best, if it be Bluehost, HostMonster, or Web Hosting Pad.

By the way, if you use Site Build It, web hosting is all inclusive.

3. Your Website Name

The name of your website (ie. your domain name or your URL) will be important when you consider the search engine optimisation principles.

For example, you may want to create a website about model aircraft. In fact, you want your website to be about How To Build Model Aircraft. Therefore, I would use the domain name: www.how-to-build-model-aircraft.com. The hyphens allow the search engine to see how-to-build-model-aircraft as individual words rather than one long word.

See search engine optimisation below for more information on the importance of naming your website correctly.

4. Your Website Design

Your website design is linked to your website builder.

If you decide to go with Site Build It, then your website design is as simple as choosing the design and start building.

If you decide to go with XsitePro 2, then your website design is as simple as choosing a template and start building.

If you decide to go with Dreamweaver CS4, then you will need to design your own template.

5. Your Website Content

Website content is usually relative to the purpose of your website. Nevertheless, your website content must be structured around specific keywords. After all, search engines love websites that are structured around specific keywords.
